Pros

Doesn’t leave a sticky residue after application like some snail creams

It’s non-greasy and lightweight, making it feel more luxurious than other creams

You don’t need to use too much. A small amount will cover your whole face

Absorbed quickly into the skin

Contains a moisturiser, so no additional moisturising products are needed to prevent dry skin

It’s cheaper than many similar snail creams

Cons

There are better snail creams for people with sensitive skin, as some people say that it can sting a little and may cause a rash to breakout. This isn’t a problem for other skin types

Doesn’t contain a sun protection factor (SPF) like some other creams such as Snail White

… using this cream for nearly 3 weeks and I’m amazed how good my skin looks, 31 Jan. 2015

I’ve been using this cream for nearly 3 weeks and I’m amazed how good my skin looks. For years I was battling with dry patches on my nose and this cream is the only thing that actually helped. My skin is smooth, with more even tone and I didn’t have any breakouts since I’ve started using it. Amazing stuff.

Early delivery and extra sachets, 21 Jan. 2015

I haven’t even tried this product yet, but I have high hopes from all the fantastic reviews! The Snail Cream pot is bigger than I expected. It arrived 1 day BEFORE estimated delivery (great!) and also came with a few surprise sachets: Innisfree apple juicy cleansing foam and canola honey serum; Skinfood Egg White Pore Foam; and Missha Super Aqua Refreshing Cleansing Foam. Lovely extra gifts. Thanks so much Missha! I can’t wait to use these products.

Fantastic cream!!, 2 April 2014

This is the most elegant feminine cosmetic product ever! Snail extract is very delicately intertwined in a very subtle (cucumbery?watermelony?) scent. Feels great on skin, gently working its magic. One con is the taste of it (!). If anyone tastes your cheek with a romantic kiss they will sure taste the bitter aftertaste

Smell

Texture

Missha’s snail cream is light and gel-like, giving it an edge over other snail creams which are typically rich, thick and sticky. This texture makes it easy to apply and better at being absorbed into the skin than some of the other creams on the market.

Moisture

Missha snail cream offers a good amount of moisture, both on contact and throughout the day, ensuring that your skin stays feeling soft, smooth and hydrated. It’s light, weightless and isn’t at all greasy or shiny in appearance like some moisturisers can be.

Directions

Use on your face, applying a small amount of the cream twice a day after cleansing, in the morning and evening. Missha snail cream does contain a moisturiser, however, use an additional moisturiser if necessary.
